Lesa sneered." Can you make the decision alone? I dare to guarantee that your brother and father will definitely not agree.”
Lilias frowned and glared at Lesa. She said firmly,"It's their business whether they agree or not. It's my own marriage, and I'll make my own decisions!”
Hearing this, Lesa's mood worsened. She clapped her hands and said coldly," Alright. He had backbone! Although you are the heir of the Gimmonli family, the demons from my Phoenix family are not to be trifled with!”
The flames around Lesa spread out, and the soaring flames gathered behind him. The scorching flames formed a pair of wings.
Lesa's face was ferocious." Don't think too highly of yourself!”
Kiba Yuto and Kitten instantly stood in front of Lilias to protect her. Even when facing a superior demon like Lesa, their bodies did not tremble.
Lilias's eyes were cold as red magic power spread around her.
The atmosphere in the hall became tense again, and a great battle was about to break out.
The calmer of the group, Grefiya, spoke up."Young miss, Lord Lesa, please calm down. Otherwise…"
Gryfia glared at Lesa and said coldly," Don't blame me for being impolite. I'm not afraid of the Phoenix Family Head pursuing me after this.”
The one with the most authority here was still the unremarkable maid, Grefiya. Because of her strength, no one dared to question her words.
Although Lesa was dissatisfied, she still obediently withdrew her magic, and the flames around her instantly dissipated.
Seeing this, Lilias also asked them to put away their weapons.
Gryphon seemed to see that Lesa was still dissatisfied." How about this, my lady?" Why don't you have a 'ranking game' with Lord Lesa to determine the winner? The loser will listen to the winner.”
Lilias looked at Grefia in a daze, not knowing what to say.
After seeing the thoughtful expression on Ichisei's face, Kimba Yuto explained,""It refers to a game where demons with titles lead their servants to compete.”
"It is also one of the ways to determine the status of the demons. After the Holy War, many of the 72 demon pillars lost their pure-blood descendants. Demon King Ajka developed demon chess pieces to reincarnate into other races to increase the number of demons.
There were many different rules and restrictions in the competition. How the rules and restrictions were used and how the terrain was used would affect the king's evaluation. According to the performance of the competition, the status of the demon with a high evaluation could be promoted.
Using real world chess as a model, the ranking game configuration was King 1, Queen 1, Chariot 2, Knight 2, Bishop 2, Soldier 8, a total of 16.
The 15 chess pieces other than the king were given by the current demon king, and there might be mutated chess pieces among them (one special chess piece could obtain a subordinate with higher abilities).”
Yi Cheng nodded. To put it bluntly, it was a competition of whose fist was bigger and whose score was higher during the fight.
Since only high-level demons were qualified to lead their subordinates to participate in the competition, Yicheng felt that he could use this game to increase his status in the future.
In the future, if she married Lilias, her family would not see her as a gigolo.
When Lesa heard about the ranking game, she was instantly interested and revealed a playful smile." Using this game to determine the outcome, Lilias, are you serious? Besides, this is your first time participating in this game, right?”
Lilias crossed her arms in front of her chest and regained her calm expression. She said,"That's right. I've already thought it through. I don't need your concern anymore.”
"Hey, Lilias, don't say that I'm bullying you. Let me remind you first, I've participated in several official games before, and I've won quite a few matches. Even so, do we still have to compete, Lilias?”
Lilias seemed to have victory in her grasp and revealed a relieved smile." Of course! When the time comes, I'll make you admit defeat!”
Head Maid Grefia saw Lilias's response to Lesa.
After getting the affirmation of both parties, the silver-haired head maid bowed deeply and stepped forward.""When the time comes, for the sake of fairness. I'll inform the clan heads of both sides to come and watch the battle.”
"Then, for the sake of fairness, how about we set it to a week later?”
"I have no objections."
"Alright, then I'll leave it to Head Maid Grefiya.”
With that, Lesa put her hand into her pocket, whistled, and walked out of the door." I haven't been to the human world for so long. I'll go take a look first." Lilias, you can also prepare the wedding dress this week. See you next time then."
Lilias glared at Lesa, but ignored him.
The door closed, and the heavy atmosphere in the room disappeared.
"Minister, what should we do next?" Zhu Nai was the first to break the silence.”
Lilias 'expression turned serious. A week of hellish training!”
"This is the minister we know.”
"Okay, everyone, do your best."
